Healing Scars
 

Healing Scars, presented by Moogahlin Performing Arts, is a powerful new performance by Yuwalaaraay composer and performer Warren Mason, tracing the intergenerational journey of First Peoples healing from injustice.

Blending the natural sounds of Country, the haunting tones of Mason’s guitar, spoken word in multiple languages and the voices of Elders, Healing Scars creates a rich, immersive soundscape interwoven with choreography by Jasmine Gulash (Gubbi Gubbi) and Jo Clancy (Wiradjuri), tracing stories that connect past and present.

Raw, moving and deeply human, Healing Scars invites audiences into a cathartic journey of truth, healing and resilience – an unmissable work that honours survival, strength and the power of First Peoples storytelling.

Healing Scars was first developed during Yellamundie Festival 2023.

    The script is based on a true story, although this dramatisation can feel somewhat contrived, with important assertions not interrogated, and credibility stretched as a result.

    The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    In the care of Pinchgut Opera’s director, Erin Helyard, this music, formulaic as it indeed is in some respects, sprang off the page into an experience rich in emotions.

    There is a lot to love about this show; the cast are strong, and the onstage band who interact in the main diner setting is a fun touch.

    Izzard: The Tragedy of Hamlet
    To Shakespeare’s text be true is the obvious goal here, and writer, director and actor have each scored.

    Even when individual works did not fully land for me dramaturgically, there is no denying the precision, intelligence and care of the artists creating them.
